다이옥신류의 주된 생성원인은 쓰레기 소각장에서의 배출가스에 기인한다고 알려져 있다.$^{1,3,4)}$ 그 밖에 농약제조, pulp 제조과정에서 부산물로 생성되기도 하고, 자동차배가스도 다이옥신의 생성원인 중에 하나이다. Miyabara$^{5)}$ 등은 일본내 자동차 배출가스 입자중 다이옥신류의 농도는 4.2-242 pg I-TEQ/g이였으며, 일본에서 배출하는 다이옥신류의 약 0.3%에 달한다고 추정하였다. 도로변 퇴적물 둥에서의 다이옥신 농도는 자동차 배출가스 등으로부터 직ㆍ간접으로 많은 영향을 받고 있으며, 이들이 비산할 경우 운전자의 호흡기를 통해 건강에 직접적으로 영향을 미칠 수 있다.$^{2)}$ (중략)

PCDDS and PCDFs are very stable chcmicals and have very long residence times in the environment and in organisms, including humans. Their hydrophobicity promotes accumulation in sediments and organisms, resulting in high concentrations in both sediments and organisms. Among toxicological effects reports arc teratogenicity, reduce reproduction, liver toxicity, decreased growth rate and behavioral changes (Zeise et al., 1990; Huff, 1992). PCDDs/DFs are inadvertently produced from various combustion sources and manufacturing processes, such as municipal solid waste incineration (Olie et at., 1977), motor vehicles (Marklund et al., 1987), steel mills (Tysklind et al., 1989), and chemical production processes (Hutzinger et al., 1985).

월남전 고엽제 피해와 도시 폐기물 소각로 문제로 일반에게 알려진 다이옥신(Dioxins and Furans)은 기존의 연구결과 토양, 호수와 강의 바닥, 대기, 수계생물, 동식물 및 인체조직 등 거의 모든 자연환경에 존재하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 특히 도시의 대기는 도시 폐기물 소각로나 자동차 등 화것 연료의 연소에 의해 배출되는 다이옥신, PCBs, PAH 등 많은 오염 물질을 함유하고 있는데 이 중 독성이 가장 높은 물질이 다이옥신이다.(중략)

There are growing concerns about human health effects of dioxin and dioxin like compounds such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Earlier studies recognized that 2.3.7.8-tetrachloro dibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and structually related dioxin like compounds invoke a number of common toxic responses that are mediated through a high-affinity cytosolic receptor protein, the AhR.(omitted)

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins(PCDDs), dibenzofurans(PCDFs), and biphenyls(PCBs) were analyzed by HRGC/HRMS in human blood samples from the Siwha industrial area in Korea. The PCDD/F and PCB concentrations in workers were higher than those in residents. The average TEQ concentrations of PCDD/Fs in workers and residents were 40.3 pg I-TEQs/g lipid and 16.6 pg I-TEQs/g lipid, respectively, and the total PCB concentrations were 174.1 ng/g lipid and 151.0 ng/g lipid, respectively. When applied to principal component analysis, the PCDD/F congener distributions of workers were differentiated from those of residents. But, all of them were similar to the distribution in several Korean foods. Estimated daily intake(EDI) of each person was calculated, and then only 40% to the total people were within the tolerable daily intake range(1-4pg I-TEQ/kg bw/day) suggested by WHO(1997).

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs) are ubiquitous and can contaminate the food chain. A study monitoring PCDD/Fs in imported meat was conducted at the National Veterinary Research and Quarantine Service (NVRQS, Republic of Korea) in order to maintain food safety from the bioaccumulative PCDD/Fs. Seventeen PCDD/Fs with toxic equivalency factors (TEFs) established by World Health Organization (WHO, 1998) were analyzed in imported beef, pork, and chicken by high resolution gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HR-GC/MS). Results of the monitoring for the last 5 years are presented. The levels of PCDD/Fs were similar to other studies except two unusually high concentrations in pork and beef. Excessive levels greater than the Korean provisional maximum residue limit of PCDD/Fs were found in a sample of pork imported from Chile and a sample of beef imported from U.S, and those products were rejected and returned. There was no obvious trend or differences with respect to time or origin of meat in this study.

The aim of this study was to investigate deposition characteristics of atmospheric PCDD/Fs on pine needles and soil. Concentration of PCDD/Fs on soil were higher than those in pine needles, being 7.4 times for ${\Sigma}PCDDs$, 2.3 times for ${\Sigma}PCDFs$, and 5.4 times for ${\Sigma}PCDD/Fs$ respectively. The ratios of the concentration of each homologue in soil to that in pine needles increased as the number of chlorine atoms increased. The concentration (%) of each congener to ${\Sigma}PCDD/Fs$ was higher in the one with a small number of chlorine atoms substituted, such as tetra- to hexa-homologues in pine needle samples and in one with a large number of chlorine atoms, such as hepta- to octa-homologues in soil samples. Lower-chlorinated homologues of PCDD/Fs were mainly accumulative deposited in pine needles, whereas higher-chlorinated ones were on soil.

이 연구의 목적은 자원회수시설 근로자 및 인근 지역 거주 주민의 혈중다이옥신류 농도를 평가하고, 혈중 다이옥신류 농도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 평가하는 것이다. $2002{\sim}2004$년까지 대상 자원회수시설에 3년 이상 근무한 근로자 31명과 시설로부터 300 m이내 지역에서 3년 이상 거주한 주민 68명을 선정하여 혈액을 채취하였다. 참고 자료로 대상 자원회수시설에 영향을 받지 않는 도시 지역에 거주하는 일반 주민 11명을 함께 평가하였다. 혈액 채취 시 개인 특성에 대한 설문조사도 함께 실시하였다. 시설 근로자의 혈중 다이옥신류 농도는 평균 $2.09{\sim}66.67pg/g$ lipid, 인근 거주 주민은 $1.00{\sim}29.33pg/g$ lipid, 일반 도시 주민은 $5.29{\sim}35.93pg/g$ lipid로 측정되었다. 시설 인근 지역 거주 주민 및 일반 도시 주민 중 비 흡연자의 인체 부하량은 각각 3.0 ng TEQ/g lipid와 4.5 ng TEQ/g lipid로 평가되었다. 대상군의 특성에 따른 혈중 다이옥신류 농도 차이는 관찰되지 않았으며, 연령과 유의한 양의 상관성이 있었다.

Dioxin CRM for QA/QC was prepared with fly ash collected from municipal waste incinerator. With that CRM inter-laboratory test was carried out. The collected fly ash was conducted several homogeneity steps including sievings and mixing. Homogeneity test and estimation of uncertainty was performed by one-way ANOVA based on ISO guide 35. Compared concentrations of fly ash of participants to CRM values, PCDDs value was lower than that of CRM in almost participants, and showed higher PCDFs concentration than that of CRM. Although there is a small difference in PCDD/Fs concentrations with congeners of extract, the result was close to mean value.
